For high school students, choosing a major or a career path often raises many questions: What do I enjoy? What kind of work suits me? And where will today’s choices lead me?
For Grade 11 HASians, the journey to find these answers began with a hands-on experience at the British University Vietnam (BUV). Here, they had the opportunity to step out of the classroom to observe, explore, and connect their studies with the ever-evolving professional world.
Kicking off the journey with a BUV campus tour, the students explored the modern, spacious learning environment and learned more about the university’s academic programs. This was not merely a chance to discover a specific university; it also helped them better visualize the academic settings and expectations that might await them after high school.
In particular, career guidance activities brought students closer to answering the question: “Who do I want to become in the future?” After exploring the landscape and trends of the job market, the HASians sketched out their own “dream career trees”—mapping out their interests, the competencies they need to develop, and the career paths they aspire to pursue.
Meaningful career orientation goes beyond simply selecting a major. It is a process of self-discovery and understanding the world around them, where students gradually realize what preparations are needed today to reach their desired future.
At H.A.S, such off-campus experiences thus become an integral part of the journey of personal growth. Each journey does more than just add a new destination to the map; it opens up new perspectives, empowering students to actively explore, make choices, and take responsibility for the path they are forging.
We invite parents, teachers, and HASians to look back at the meaningful moments from this recent experience.
